CSS Forum

New here and fairly new at tableless design layout. I am trying to break away from my old school designing processes and rid myself of tables for layouts.

I have looked all over. I have one small hickup that I need to figure out. I have a div that is absolute positioned. I have some text links in this div. I need to valign my text links to be centered vertically. Easy enough to do using a table cell layout, just simply put in valign="center" into my TD tag. Well I have no TD tags and I don't want to valign the entire DIV, just the text links I have there. Anyone know how to accomplish this? I have looked all over and have seen hover commands and whatnot, but I think they all are attributes that cover the entire div yes? Should I set a nested div with just the text links in there?

Please help an old dog learn a new trick. Help me break my table chains of design!

Thanks for the warm welcome and the code. Works perfectly! I am not sure why I could not find "text align: center" anywhere in the CSS DIV styles in the way of links/text out there in the WWW abyss. I have a column with links cascading down and I need them to justify to the right (with padding) and center valign. This works out great! Thanks so much!
